Guice 如何注入类型安全配置？

Question

Recently I am reading some scala code which uses Guice to inject the Typesafe Config.. It seems kind of magic to me how this works.. My question is, how to interpret this code? Does Guice inject all those configuration values read in sbt-assembly into typesafe config automatically?

Scala code:

class FooImpl @Inject() (
  config: Config
) extends Foo {

  private val myConfig = "section.foo"

  override val batchSize = config.getInt(s"$myConfig.batchSize")

  .....
}

In Setting.scala

object Settings {
    ...
    assemblyMergeStrategy in assembly := {
      case "prod.conf" => MergeStrategy.concat
      case x =>
        val oldStrategy = (assemblyMergeStrategy in assembly).value
        oldStrategy(x)
    }
  ...

In prod.conf

section {

  foo {
    batchSize = 10000
...

I think you're mixing three different mechanisms here :)

1. @Inject is indeed Guice, and it's a final step in the process. Simply put, Guice has a "dependency injection container" that knows where to look for instances of certain types. One of the types it knows of is the Config . How it knows this depends on the framework you're using (or how you instantiate your Guice container if you're not using it);

2. Typesafe config has rules on where to look for configuration. Readme sums it pretty good, but in short - it finds application.conf in resources folder (or, actually, anywhere on the classpath), and then imports all the other files that application.conf explicitly imports (using import other_conf.conf ). I'm assuming in your case there's import prod.conf somewhere in the application.conf

3. Assembly - just puts all the resources from all the dependencies into one giant resource folder - specifying rules on what to do if there are multiple files wit hthe same name. In your case, it tells it to just concatenate them.
